Subject: Re: Rear bearing failure: tapered roller by SpectatorRacing on 2011/11/8 18:38:27 If you track your C4 on R compound tires you will have bearing problems. There is no cost effective solution out there. Kevin started the questions five years ago on the CF, nothing has changed. The tapered experiment proved to be a bust, this is one of many failures from folks who hoped it would work and found out it did not. James and Matt C. proved it in a matter of days. If you track your C4 rear bearings are a wear item. No brand name bearing will save you. The tenth guy to try making a rebuildable rear bearing (Brian was probably the first) just popped up a few months ago. He succeeded, but guess what? It ended up costing within 10% of a new one. Labor to remove and replace is unchanged, so why bother? I am a broken record but I speak the truth. |
